Welcome to The Family Table Podcast with Tanya Alkhaliq.
In this first episode, I’m laying the foundation for what this space is, and what it isn’t. This podcast is a gathering place for diasporic Africans to unpack the weight we carry, spiritually, politically, psychologically, and emotionally. Here, we blend theology, therapy, and historical research to challenge systems that have distorted the Black psyche and reclaim narratives that heal us.
The Family Table is where truth meets tenderness. It’s where we critique culture, question power, and build toward collective liberation. Whether we’re talking about generational trauma, faith, sex & gender, mental health, or Black identity, every episode is rooted in creating space to think, feel, and transform, together.
Pull up a seat. Let’s begin.
